The Mid 2014 15,1 iMac has TH2 ports, the 14,2 iMac doesn't. It looks as if they use other criteria to determine which Macs can install and run the latest macOS.Īfter a good amount of research, it's clear to me now that Apple drew the line for Big Sur support at Desktop Macs and Macbook Pros that have Thunderbolt 2 controllers. It's more than capable of running Big Sur, especially if a 2014 Mac mini is able to. There seemed to be no good reason to drop the Late 2013 iMac from their list of supported Macs. When Apple announced which Macs would still be supported by macOS 11, I found it hard to believe they dropped support for 2013 iMacs and kept support for the 2013 MBP and 2013 Mac Pro.
